Over 1,000 protesters marched through central Paris, Saturday, to demand "truth and justice" for Adama Traore, who died in police custody in July.
The demonstrators, carrying banners and photos of Traore, marched between Chatelet and Place de la Requblique in the French capital. "They have to go to jail," said President of the Representative Council of France's Black Associations (CRAN), Louis-Georges Tin, adding "law enforcement has to be exemplary and stop causing deaths."
Adama Traore, a 24 year old black man, died on July 19 in police custody following his arrest in Beaumont-sur-Oise. Local authorities claim that Traore died of heart attack however Traore’s family accuse police of beating him to death. Two autopsies have so far been performed and an investigation is ongoing.
